....just to wish everyone a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year. Just now able to
use the keyboard with both hands, the surgery last Tuesday went well, a
repaired torn rotator cuff and cutting off the end of the clavicle should
put things right by about next May (sez my slicer/dicer) HA! Just in time
for my annual pilgramage to pester Maine smallies. For entertainment this
winter I plan to re-read my John Gierach collection and every other book
that I once enjoyed, gathering dust on the book rack.
